Just heard from a usually reliable source that curnow will go pick 2 to Brisbane, does this open the door for parish? Gold Coast take francis and essendon take schache? Perhaps other way around but I think if this mail is solid we'd be a better chance to get parish. Forgive me if no one cares in the wake of the Carlisle fiasco.
Ha, ha, I care mate. Would prefer Francis though. If Curnow goes early we would be able to choice 1 of Francis, Parish or Mathieson. Not a bad problem to have.

That is the only deal the Bombers would consider from us mate. Obviously not worth it. We have been working on trying to get something in the mid teens for them before the Hawks have come over the top.
Fair enough.

Pick 5 on its own for Carlisle would be madness.

Pick 5 for Carlisle and a pick in the 15-25 range, would be reasonable for both parties IMO.

Hurley is a person of outstanding character and has class. It wouldn't be in his nature.
Carlisle however has lacked these his entire life as you have unfortunately discovered.
I know Mike & he is exactly what you say.

Very poor firm from Carlisle but I'm proud that the club has held firm.

You guys don't want a guy with a character like that. Sooks it up in the forward line, goes back on his word, publicly bad mouths his own club. Your building nicely no need for a pick 5 given up for such a low character individual

My take on this is that it was fairly obvious that St Kilda weren't Jake's first preference. It would have been great to get Carlisle, and we still might, however I started having doubts when the points about 'midfielders win you flags' were being raised.

If Carlisle comes to our club then that's great, but I'd be equally happy to use #5 for a gun midfielder, or swap for two early-ish picks and pick up a couple of young stars.

Keep the Faith

Looks like I'm going against everyone else..I want Carlisle so find a deal asap saints
This whole deal from the start had real stench about it .He never seemed to have any passion about coming to us , his manager was ruthless in clubs bidding aginst our offer which wewas what they asked for from day 1 .
If he goes ,and I think he wil,l he is not the type of guy we want with our young kids .I just hope now that we move on really quickly and perhaps land someone else with afew morals and wants to pay for the jumper not just the money .

Obviously North are the major loser here. Why would North help Hawthorn who they will be challenging for a flag??? Other ways of getting Anderson without strengthening the best team in the comp to do so. Not adding up to me.

This is to me the oddest part of the muted deal.

Hawks have a lot of old players. If they are going to win it, it is the next year or two.

Strengthening the Hawks is just absoluting moronic for the Kangas, and moreso as they havea forward line with several very tall options that Carlisle can stop.

If North facilitate it they have just cut their own throats.
